My step-grandfather was a Coast Guard Commander out of Alaska back in the 50s-60s. He was retired when I first met him and he was such a kind, unassuming, humble man. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I figured out what a total badass he must have been. These shows give me even more respect for him and the men and women Coasties serving up in Alaska today.
I moved away from Juneau in early 2020 but still hold the Coast Guard in high regard and still have many family and friends there today keep up the great work
Kudos to those two spinal injury patients for gritting it out with such toughness through that incredible amount of pain as well as the intensity of the rescue in the helicopter itself and being so gracious at the end for everything that the amazing Coast Guards have done for them and continue to do for everyone up there!!!! It is a real true testament not only to the intelligence, experienced expertise, skill and heart that the Coast Guard members all show each and every time on each of these rescues and episodes, but I am ALWAYS awestruck at their reassuringly calm but very exact and quickly executed precision level of professionalism from the rescues themselves and their interactions with ALL involved (including each other too especially!!!!) but also in retrospect in their narrative commentary as well as when you see them (not often but sometimes) interacting with their patients after the rescue has been accomplished as well. LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT ALL!!!!!! ❤️🇺🇸
Thank Heavens for the Coast Guard. Without the Coast Guard there would be large parts of land that would be unlivable not to mention the many miles of sea coast that could no longer be fished. Nothing these people do is ordinary or without great risk to themselves. Thanks! US Coast Guard
Just Imagine If people actually went out in wilderness in pairs? What if you're out fishing and instead of using COMMON SENSE of checking your gear and weather report couple days leading up to the day of trip to be prepared and then pack little bit extra for "just in case" situation? Oh I know, I'll just rely on the Coast Guard to come get me cause I'm thst one guy with NO sense and I'll leave my cell phone at the house. Hope they'll see your PRIDE FLAG flying and if they don't, then you PROTEST they discriminated against you.

8 broken ribs in the back? Oof! Being someone with the skeleton of Yoda and a jacked up spine and ribs, I can tell you thoracic spine and rib pain is as bad as it gets! The pain goes right through you and even makes your organs hurt. It’s also terrifying because it’s hard to breathe. God bless the Coast Guard!
I broke 3 ribs in my back, and bruised my kidneys once (Well, the cops did it to me after i decided to fight them. They beat me with blackjacks and boot heels.) Lol One of my broke ribs punctured my lung causing it to collapse. That took the fight right out of me. I pissed blood for a week, couldn't breathe, and required emergency medical care. I'm white so nobody gave a damn. Me either. I deserved it.... I fought the law but the law won!
At about 13:00, you can see a Holland America ship behind them, and I think it’s the Oosterdam. I was on a cruise on the Oosterdam and we stopped in Sitka; I fell in love with the place. Eagles there are like cardinals in Virginia. Volcano in the harbor, and the town is nestled between mountains and the sea. Truly one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.

After doing so much training and years on the job you become comfortable with situations what made you nervous on your first is a walk in the park the 100th time doing it . Been a firefighter 12 and emt 10 and going into a fire or a major trauma is now just something to do before lunch or dinner
The people in the bird are excellent problem-solvers. Every situation is different; together forming the plan and follow through. They never give up. Props
A lot of comments are calling this video clickbait because they used the word "deadly". Deadly does not mean someone died. It means someone could have died. For example; crashing your car into a brick wall at top speeds is deadly, but survivable. The appropriate word to use if someone had died would be "fatal". Expand your lexicon.
So, is there a farm or something where they raise you folks for the job? Every one of you possesses atributes and strengths, which ,combined with your training, creates some of the most cohisive, efective, and impresive teams I've seen in a long time. Believe me, I'm not easily impressed. I'm proud to spend my taxes on you.
I have a friend that was a SAR swimmer in Kodiak for 7 years. Every base trains/executes every thing the same way every time. The individual team members are interchangeable from base to base. They are as Elite as the Green Barrets in their own right.
It is about training. I have friends and extended family in the USCG in various places and they are not just trained this way but they know they need to be a certain way to be successful.
Watching this show makes me know that America is the greatest country in the world. Throw all the bad at us you want people like the Coast Guard are examples of the good in this country that shine through!!!! God Bless the USCG🙏🙏
Coast Guard members are the best of the best! It's mystifying to me why they don't give pain medication. Swimmers and pilots have titanium nerves. You can tell the crews really care about their patients.
God bless the US Coast Guard and keep them safe in all their missions. It a good feeling to see them fly overhead knowing they are there if you need them.Even if they board you they are just doing there job to make sure all is safe and in order. Thanks for being in our corner Coast Guard.
y'all don't play you guys are freaking awesome I just started watching these videos this morning in South Carolina and they will be on my TV all day 💪🏼👊🏽👊🏽💯💕👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I've been watching these Coast Guard Alaska for several days- and enjoyed every single one. Learning SO MUCH about the Coast Guard, Alaska and the conditions there. I forgot to "like" all the videos, but I hope to go back and give a thumbs up. I appreciate the fact the show shows rescues that are not always successful. Sometimes you don't find the person, and nice your honest about that. I do have a question- I know that person that goes out the door is called the "swimmer" but what is the person called that stays inside the cabin- is that the person that hangs out the door and looks at the bottom of the helicopter as it lands on difficult terrain to make all the wheels are down and nothing pokes the bottom of the helicopter. Is he called the Flight Engineer? The other 2 are the Captain/Pilot and Co-pilot, yes?
Its called conversation, it is to check the concious state of the patient by monitoring their response. Because shock is the deadliest killer and its fast.
UNITED STATES COAST GUARD! I am an American 🇺🇸 so I may be influenced but USCG IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD 🌎 these teams from pilots to rescue swimmers and most important air mechanic do a great job of helping people when they really need help!🙏❤️🇺🇸👼🏼😎🏳️🇬🇧🇨🇦🇮🇪😇👍🥺😶🌫️
We have fantastic rescue services, they are amazing but those rescue swimmers are something else. Rescue swimmer has got to be my idea of one scary job, definitely the last job I would pick, no way.
@@troyottosen8722 Not Alaska but to the Yukon. Not exactly sure what your point is though. There was nothing deadly about that accident as nobody died. The correct phrasing would be "potentially deadly accident" which would be accurate, but not so much click bait
I watch the channel a lot, and always learn stuff. Great series and quality entertainment...Question for any present or past USCG: Does the Guard use scoop stretchers? It is a quick way to 'scoop' a spine injury patient without rolling them. When the patient is in a litter/gurney etc. you un-scoop and leave the patient properly situated for transport. Saves time and handling the patient.
In tight corners, you stand the back board, or in this case, the litter up to make the turn. I have had to help the ambulance service make a hard turn by doing it that way.
Girlfriend of mine in high school was trying to beat her parents home, in time for curfew, she was out in the country, crossed a railroad crossing of 2 sets of tracks, at an angle & tumbled her ATV. She died on scene on internal injuries. Her parents have never been the same.
That's what is so different the England's EMTs. Those EMT give patients something for pain within the first 5 minutes.They don't take the pain away entirely but enough to treat and move.
The lifeguards in Australia (so not full paramedics) use something called 'the magic green straw'. It's incredibly effective, not addictive, very very hard to overdose, but pretty short lived. It REALLY needs to be approved in the US and UK. They've been using it for over 50 years. Congrats to big pharma for effectively keeping other cheaper, non-addictive meds at bay... Grr
Did anyone notice the 🛳 at 13:13? Cause I go on a lot of cruise ships with my mom for luxury to suite rooms to different kinds of ships and we were on that same one in the background.
Jay I think they meant potentially fatal accident but forgot the potentially part, and honestly to be fair to the great Coast Guard rescue in Kodiak that they show on these episodes, I hope people DO still watch even if their bloodlust for an ACTUAL fatal accident is not quite met by the very lucky and extremely grateful patient’s survival. Also, get OVER yourselves with this pathetically helpless whining about this show and “clickbait” complaining. 🙄😐😑🤫 there are SOOOO many other REAL clickbait titles of stupid idiotic and blatantly obvious examples of channels and videos being shameless just to get clicks to their nonsensical drivel (usually) or super uninteresting and poorly produced shows and videos that nitpicking at this INCREDIBLE show that absolutely features truly (often only within minutes or a little bit longer) nearly fatal situations with VERY suspenseful and extremely interestingly produced and executed rescues and the footage thereof to accompany..... it’s NOT worth it. 🤷🏻♀️🙅🏻♀️ (also, you do you though, if you want to be a patience-trying impossible complainer for whatever reason, it’s not my life you’re wasting so go right ahead lol. I’m just saying the above to try and make a point about what hill you’re (figuratively) going to be willing to die on with this one.... No pun intended obviously.....lol)
I am not trying to be disrespectful, just a question. Coast Guard calls helos ‘planes’? Not the first time I have heard that, especially on this show. Just a question.
It's interesting but the Navy and Coast Guard refer to the helicopters as planes. Unfortunately I know this because I watch a lot of stuff with Vietnam Army Pilots Navy Pilots exedra. I'm disabled. Navy in Coast Guard terminology is different then Army. By the way, Army has more aircraft than some other services I'm thinking Air Force LOL.
I love all the Coast Guard , but watching Mya talk about how she is the same level of experience/training as Chris just made me upset. It was her FIRST time out, and she was so arrogant; and to say at the end that Chris is an excellent swimmer, rather than EMT who did more for the patient than Mya was just insulting! There is a Huge difference of Skill in a classroom or facility than in a Helicopter in a tight space. Chris is Awesome!
Would asking both maybe be helpful to determine whether the patient is cognizant of having lost consciousness or not? I am not a medical professional so this is a genuine question, not trying to criticize lol I’m genuinely just curious... :)
The job of SAR is a difficult job under normal circumstances, in somewhere as remote as Alaska it must be very very much more difficult and dangerous, these Coastguard personnel are worth their weight in gold. One question I have though is are the Corpsmen and ladies trained to some form of advanced paramedic qualifications? the reason for my question is because I wonder if they are able to carry out things like Rapid Sequence intubation (RSI) and give drugs like ketamine and TXA, in the United Kingdom our Helimed teams usually include a Doctor so these drugs and other emergency procedures are able to be carried out, obviously having a doctor on every mission, in Alaska, isn’t feasible, so hence my question. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Im a bit confused on how the Coast Guard is allowed to handle pain management. I've seen some videos where they administered both Morphine and Ketamine, and then in a lot of videos they say that the have nothing they can do.
In the US only EMT's are not allowed to give drugs. Paramedics and intermediates (and of course Nurses and up can) can give prescription medications for pain management. It may be that some ambulances or helicopter crews only have EMT's and they are not able to give drugs. Also not all ambulances carry drugs either. Not sure about CG Helicopter Gods. lol.

@16:18 "run aground". The upside to that is, they won't sink. ;-) Now in all fairness, he didn't say they were hard aground, but if that's the case, should buy some time for getting them off the boat.
I need to interject again. One is not discussing and then taking action. They will continuously be telling you what they are doing whether or not you are responding. The body is always evaced in a straight position. Simply looking at the patient or the climatic conditions would tell one how to proceed. One will use the snow or ice to assist in the hypothermia. The skin will be black or bright red, etc. The important thing is to get the victim to the destination alive. That is the person of life support.

Also, get OVER yourselves with this pathetically helpless whining about this show and “clickbait” complaining. 🙄😐😑🤫 there are SOOOO many other REAL clickbait titles of stupid idiotic and blatantly obvious examples of channels and videos being shameless just to get clicks to their nonsensical drivel (usually) or super uninteresting and poorly produced shows and videos that nitpicking at this INCREDIBLE show that absolutely features truly (often only within minutes or a little bit longer) nearly fatal situations with VERY suspenseful and extremely interestingly produced and executed rescues and the footage thereof to accompany..... it’s NOT worth it. 🤷🏻♀️🙅🏻♀️
(also, you do you though, if you want to be a patience-trying impossible complainer for whatever reason, it’s not my life you’re wasting so go right ahead lol. I’m just saying the above to try and make a point about what hill you’re (figuratively) going to be willing to die on with this one.... No pun intended obviously.....lol)
Soooo....Where was the "deadly" ATV accident?
You flip an ATV in the bush and break your back, and it's plenty deadly. If that guy had stayed there come nightfall, he'd've died.
Seems a bit click batey to me!
TY, got out at 1 min in - - -
Perhaps it was the ATV that died (engine stopped).
It made sense to me they said deadly not fatal
Hope I never ever need the Coast Guard (I do live in San Diego) but if I do I know I am lucky!
I swear clavicles are made of balsa wood.
Im first here yayyyy!!! 😀😀
Thank you!
I am not trying to be disrespectful, just a question. Coast Guard calls helos ‘planes’? Not the first time I have heard that, especially on this show. Just a question.
It's interesting but the Navy and Coast Guard refer to the helicopters as planes. Unfortunately I know this because I watch a lot of stuff with Vietnam Army Pilots Navy Pilots exedra. I'm disabled. Navy in Coast Guard terminology is different then Army. By the way, Army has more aircraft than some other services I'm thinking Air Force LOL.
There’s a video in your ads
I'm curious why the caption says "Deadly ATV accident" but none of those missions were fatal
No deadly ATV accident? Well, I mean that's good no one died. But, why call it deadly? Good show though, very good show!
Deadly is not the same as fatal.
Car crashes are deadly, doesn't mean everyone dies...
Fatality is death-
Meanwhile the Florida coast guard:
*lights up drug boat with ciwis*
I LOVE MY JOOOOB
nasty. What's stopping you promoting Florida?
I love all the Coast Guard , but watching Mya talk about how she is the same level of experience/training as Chris just made me upset. It was her FIRST time out, and she was so arrogant; and to say at the end that Chris is an excellent swimmer, rather than EMT who did more for the patient than Mya was just insulting! There is a Huge difference of Skill in a classroom or facility than in a Helicopter in a tight space. Chris is Awesome!
0000F! 1 hour medical heli ride.... hope buddy has good insurance
No deadly ATV accident. Not sure why you have to lie in order to get clicks.
*running up to victim of potentially deadly ATV accident*
“HOW ARE YOU DOING TODAY?”
I never ask the patient about LOC anymore. I'll ask the witness but not the patient.
Would asking both maybe be helpful to determine whether the patient is cognizant of having lost consciousness or not? I am not a medical professional so this is a genuine question, not trying to criticize lol I’m genuinely just curious... :)
The job of SAR is a difficult job under normal circumstances, in somewhere as remote as Alaska it must be very very much more difficult and dangerous, these Coastguard personnel are worth their weight in gold. One question I have though is are the Corpsmen and ladies trained to some form of advanced paramedic qualifications? the reason for my question is because I wonder if they are able to carry out things like Rapid Sequence intubation (RSI) and give drugs like ketamine and TXA, in the United Kingdom our Helimed teams usually include a Doctor so these drugs and other emergency procedures are able to be carried out, obviously having a doctor on every mission, in Alaska, isn’t feasible, so hence my question. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Im a bit confused on how the Coast Guard is allowed to handle pain management. I've seen some videos where they administered both Morphine and Ketamine, and then in a lot of videos they say that the have nothing they can do.
This man had some prior medical issues and maybe some medications that counterindicated the medications for the pain management.
Some rescue swimmers, like Chris in this episode, are full paramedics. Others are only EMT level.
In the US only EMT's are not allowed to give drugs. Paramedics and intermediates (and of course Nurses and up can) can give prescription medications for pain management.
It may be that some ambulances or helicopter crews only have EMT's and they are not able to give drugs. Also not all ambulances carry drugs either. Not sure about CG Helicopter Gods. lol.
it would be a really nice asset for the coast guard over there is they had a pby type plane available , not sure they even make one that big anymore

This man be moon walking
Hot Coast Guard Boys!!!
35:21 WTF?!? Huge, high deck, and not a single bit of railing around any of it.
Land shark, this company is a joke, they are based out of Sitka, they hire mostly non Alaskan residents and treat there workers like crap!!!
@@troyottosen8722 lol AND they’re obviously dumbasses because that deck was basically like setting up an automatic negligence/liability gum ball machine basically 🤣🙄 and if they’re that idiotic they deserve EVERY SINGLE LAWSUIT or complaint even remotely related possible!!!! (and this is coming from somebody who went to law school basically to try and defend innocent plaintiffs against the tsunami of fraudulent and/or illegitimate civil liability egregious lawsuits and claims in many undeserving industries and everyday situations lol)
@@lovelyjanuary , what your spewing has what to do with coast guard in Alaska who save many up here in Alaska??? You have no clue about Alaska conditions, weather, remoteness,etc... our coast guard does things “daily “ up here, your ignorant ass down south would crap your pants with!!! Ignorant one!!!😂😳
@@troyottosen8722 ummm I was talking about the idiot people that ran the hotel or whatever with the huge high deck and not a single bit of railing around any of it but excellent reading comprehension skills and ability to follow a simple conversation there.... 🙄🙅🏻♀️
@@lovelyjanuary , You don’t know shit about Alaska, remote areas! Save your wannabe crap!!!
4:24 Lt Simon Green....he forget his rank??? 😂 Nice one there...CAPTAIN!!
I just helped replace a prop on the Baranof wind. It’s surprisingly still in service
@16:18 "run aground". The upside to that is, they won't sink. ;-) Now in all fairness, he didn't say they were hard aground, but if that's the case, should buy some time for getting them off the boat.
Tides...
@@abird1539 right. Before the tides. Might even give them some time to patch up and refloat.
I need to interject again. One is not discussing and then taking action. They will continuously be telling you what they are doing whether or not you are responding. The body is always evaced in a straight position. Simply looking at the patient or the climatic conditions would tell one how to proceed. One will use the snow or ice to assist in the hypothermia. The skin will be black or bright red, etc. The important thing is to get the victim to the destination alive. That is the person of life support.
